I guess it rains there a lot? Sounds like my local courses and wind. We're playing a course today that sits on what is basically the top of a cliff over looking a massive valley the city is in. I've never played a round there with no wind. There's also a ton of elevation change on holes. 20-40 feet up or down on about 6-7 and about a 100+ foot drop over 350 feet on another. Needless to say throwing downhill into a crazy headwind is tough. But hey that's why we play.

Yes, it rains buckets every single day in the winter. In the summer as well. It's cold too. And there's only 4 hours of daylight, year-round.

(This is what much of the country thinks, and we'd rather not disabuse them of this notion. :biggrin2:)

being born and raised here in the willamette valley i love the rain and the lushness and the mossy greeness and can't live without it... only rarely does it rain too much for me to still be willing to get out in it and enjoy myself... i lived down in Ashland for 4 years (technically still oregon) and felt all dryed out like a sad little wrinkly pruney version of myself... but a forecast of 7 days of sunshine also doesn't bother me a bit...

I live in what I beleive is called a 'semi arid desert'. We can't smoke on the course 4 months a year for fear of starting the whole place on fire.

That describes pretty much all of Oregon and Washington east of the Cascade crest. Similar climate zone to Kamloops, albeit a bit warmer.

Interesting. It's sunny and 50 degrees here right now (10 in the real world)

Go for it as it is supposed to be very warmer today and tomorrow. I live in Rockaway Beach, and I see more people coming to the coast to take advantage of those weather. Yesterday, my man and I took a walk on the beach, it sure felt like Spring, nice warm with soft breezy!!

The seven days changed to four days in one day. Get it while it's hot.
